4. Installation Requirements
1) Space Requirements
The cooler's installation requires unobstructed space with dimensions of
133mm(width), 154mm(length), 96mm(height), and the CPU as a central
reference point. Please check if components such as ODDs and PSU protrude
into the required space.
2) Air Guide Removal
Air guides on enclosures must be removed, before the cooler's installation, for
they protrude into the cooler's required space.

3) Protective Brace Removal
Please unclip and remove the heatsink's Plastic Brace before installing the cooler.
The Plastic Brace is in place to protect the cooler during transport.
4) Cooler Orientation
In relation to the cooler's centrally located fan, air flows from the "thinner"(front) heatsink
to the "thicker"(rear) heatsink. As shown in the diagram below, it is recommended that
the cooler be installed so that air flows from the cooler toward the enclosure's rear
exhaust fan to be released.
